Holy crap!! Thanks for the info man, I had no idea!! If only i had however much money this amazing machine must cost... They're going to have one at a guitar center like an hour away from where I live!!!I gotta go try it..

Btw, does anyone know how much this beast is going to cost?

They are saying around the $2,500.00 mark. I don't believe that will hold true with this Limited Edition release.. Especially being distributed by allocation.

Not too keen on Gibson's but if the system became as easy to install as pickups (allowing for the routing required) I wouldnt mind having on on my own guitars. Handy but a bit gimmicky IMO. Also, this system or a system like it has been around for the past 7 years, this just happens to be the first time a major producer has incorporated into a factory produced unit. All they need now is a robot neck that will keep perfect intonation and low action without fret buzz!

Yeah, there's no way it'll be 2500. There will be a regular non limited series coming out late 2008. Maybe we can expect a price drop?
